Dog Digging at Carpet
I thought I had posted this a couple of days ago but I never saw the post.
Forgive me if it had posted and there were simply no responses. Any ideas on how to stop my dog from digging at my carpet. He's a lab mix and weighs 55 lbs. and I'm so afraid one day he will cut through a seam and go down to the padding. Since he's a puppy, he began doing thi in one room of my old house (we moved 6 mo. ago) and now he's begun to do it here. At first I thought maybe it was something about the carpet that bothered him since his digging was confined to one room. I had different carpet in the living room and he chose to dig in our formal living room. He didn't start it up right away after the move, but I noticed in the middle of the night, he was making raking noises in our living room. He woke me up at 3:00 a.m. and I woke my husband up wanting him to investigate the strange noise. Then it dawned on us what it was... How can I break him of this. He has a doggie door and goes in and out as he pleases. He's never dug a hole in the backyard... Other than that, he's not a digger. He doesn't even like to get his feet wet or dirty and he's a lab! I have another dog, and she doesn't do dig at the carpet. Until I can replace the carpet with a hardwood floor any suggestions of breaking this habit? TIA, Phyllis |
